With the prevalence of smartphones, watches, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, the ability
to track their positions is becoming increasingly important. For many indoor positioning
systems (IPSs), providing an uninterrupted flow of information in real-t ...
In our daily lives, people or devices frequently need to learn their location for many reasons as some services depend on the absolute location or the proximity. The outcomes of positioning systems can have critical effects e.g., on military, emergency. Th ...
A contactless payment lets a card holder execute payment without any interaction (e.g., entering PIN or signing) between the terminal and the card holder. Even though the security is the first priority in a payment system, the formal security model of cont ...
Distance-bounding protocols allow a verifier to both authenticate a prover and evaluate whether the latter is located in his vicinity. These protocols are of particular interest in contactless systems, e.g. electronic payment or access control systems, whi ...
Contactless access control systems are critical for security but often vulnerable to relay attacks. In this paper, we define an integrated security and privacy model for access control using distance bounding (DB) which is the most robust solution to preve ...
Nowadays, there is a very high number of electronic devices with different ranges of power. Desktop peripherals and cellphones are an example of widely used low power devices. Contactless power transfer is useful to supply or recharge these devices without ...
In this paper, a modeling methodology able to create an equivalent schematic of an High-Voltage integrated circuit is developed. The equivalent schematic is based on enhanced model of diodes and resistances, accounting for minority and majority carrier pro ...
A contactless energy transfer system to supply computer peripherals is under development. It consists of an array of primary coils that are integrated in a table and secondary coils placed under the peripherals. For an everyday use, it is unthinkable to su ...
